You're walkin' along the street, or you're at a party,
|
Or else you're alone and then you suddenly dig,
|
You're looking' in someone's eyes, you suddenly realize
|
That this could be the start of something big.
|
|
You're lunching at Twenty-One and watchin' your diet,
|
Declining a charlotte russe, accepting a fig,
|
When out of a clear blue sky, it's suddenly gal and guy,
|
And this could be the start of something big.
|
|
There's no controlling the unrolling of your fate, my friend,
|
Who knows what's written in the magic book.
|
But when a lover you discover at the gate my friend,
|
Invite her in without a second look.
|
|
You're up in an aeroplane or dining at Sardi's,
|
Or lying at Malibu alone on the sand,
|
You suddenly hear a bell, and right away you can tell
|
That this could be the start of something grand.
|
|
This could be the start of something very big,
|
Why don't you play your part?
|
Please give your heart to me....and see.
|
This could be the start of something wonderful,
|
Why don't you take a chance?
|
Just try romance with me....and see.
|
|
Your watchin' the sun come up and countin' your money,
|
Or else in a dim cafe you're ordering wine,
|
Then suddenly there he is, and you wanna be where he is,
|
And this must be the start of something...
|
This could be the heart of something...
|
This could be the start of something big.
|
